Texas A&M College will add
17.4HU acres of land to its inven-
tory when the War Assets Admin
istration hands over the deed to
the Bluebonnet Ordnance Plant
late in January. The new property
will ho known as Bluebonnet Farm,
and will be used for agricultural
research and demonstration. It
lies in McClennan and Coryell
Counties.
fight against foot and mouth di-
sease. Points stressed in the re-
commendations were: 24-hour pa-
trol of the border, with airplanes
aiding the patrol during daylight
hours; Congressional appropria-
tion for a border fence; better
enforcement of the quarantine a-
gainst diseased cattle in Mexico;
and continuation of the slaughter
eradication program in Mexico.
"Just like money in the bank"—
That's the way ranchmen, farmers
and dairymen feel about their
trench silos. Filld when feed is
plentiful, these underground sup-
plies of feed are real money-
savers when feed gets scarce and
high-priced. In Nueces County,
for example, County Agricultural
Agent Henry Alsmeyer says 35,
894 tons of feed has been saved
in 61 silos by some 25 stockmen
In some cases feed has been en-
siled for as long as nine years, and
Alsmeyer says it won't spoil as
long as its kept in the ground
and free from air.

A new group, known as the
Misson Dairy Herd Improvement
Association, has been organized by
Dairymen in Bexar, Atascosa,
Wilson and Guadalupe Counties
Charter directors are J. W. Ridge-
way, San Antonio; William Ford-
ram, Stockdale; Elmo Hammonds,
Lytle; J. B. Kaiser, Jourdanton;
and Gilbert Starcke, Feguin. With
a trained technician employed to
do the testing, the association
members will aim at keeping ac-
urate production records, deter-
mining how to feed according to
production, and elimination of non-
producing cows. Twenty-three o-
ther such associations are operat-
ing successfully in Texas.

Boys really go "whole hog" on
their winter stock show. Not con-
tent to show only their fat animals
tlu^y bring along samples of then
soil building legumes, vegetable
rops and strawberries, shop pro
jects, field crops and breeding
stock. The event is called "Annual
Achievement Show"—and achieve-
ment is what it shows. Judging
is on the basis of achievement
too. Each boy's entry is given a
ribbon signifying the classifies
tion given his work by the judges
Thus, if a boy has done a blue
ribbon job, he gets a blue ribbon
red ribbon job, a red ribbon, and
so on down the line. This year'
achievement show has been sche
duled for January 17 on the Pleas
anton square.
Dissatisfied with the way things
have been going "south of the

Smithville, Texas
Members of the Texas Jersey
Cattle Club, at a recent meeting
in Austin, decried existing state
legislation regarding Hangs a.
sease. Leveling their criticism at
the state law providing that all
cattle be branded which show a
positive reaction to the Bang's
disease test, the dairymen said
"the way things are going nov
we're going o have Bang's dis-
ease concealed indefinitely in oui
herds". They explained that since j
testing is not compulsory the man
who's trying to clean up his herd
is penalized while those who have
dirty herds but do not test them
go scot-free. A resolution passed
at he meeting petitioned Governor
Jester for relief from this situa-
tion.

Rom where I sit... it/ Joe Marsh
Who Are We, Anyway?
Subject came up at Bill Web-
iter's, the other day, as we were
chatting over beer and preUels.
lust who are the folks who make up
mrtown? Where'd they come from?
Well, Doc Hollister's Scotch-
English ancestry; Will Dudleys
folks were mining stock from
Pennsylvania; Skip Powells fam-
ily were brewers back in Holland.
Guess our bloodstream's got a
bit of every country of the globe—
and every section of America. We ve
still got differences in taste and
background—whether they apply to
muBic, history, or beer. Only those
differences don't matter —because
were self-respecting people, in a
free, united land.
And from where I sit, that a
what makes our towns and cities
our America — so strong, pro-
gressive, tolerant. Our champion-
ship of individual liberties has
brought us people from all faiths,
all lands—to prove that respect for
one another's rights is the greatest
bond humanity can know!

Smaller Texas Pack
Is Viewed As Only
Temporary Setback
The generally smaller packs of
Texas vegetables in 1947, compai
ed with the previous year, were
described by market analysts of
American Can Company today a.
"but a temporary setback likely
to be followed within a few years
by a new peak in canners' re-
quirements from farmers who pro-
duce primarily for commercial pro-
cessing."
Three reasons were cited foi
expecting the unsung, inconspici-
ous tin can eventually to provide
a bigger market for Texas agri-
culture than in lt*4fi, when grow-
ers' income from a record-break-
ing output of 122,440 tons of
truck crops for processing totaled
$4,059,000, compared with an es-
timated 0>0.f(00 tons, worth $2,-
504,000, in 1947.
First, it was stated, prices o,
cans and canned foods have "held
the line" closer than most cost-
of-living items during the last
year or so of runaway prices, thus
winning new friends among con-
sumers by increasing the normally
favorable spread in price, pound
for pound, between canned ano
other foods. The price of cans for
food in 1947, according to official
industry statistics, was only about
5 per cent above 19.'16, while re-
tail prices for 21 canned foods on
October 1, 1947, were about 3
per cent less than a year earlier,
according to the National Canners
Association.
A second reason can company
analysts are inclined toward op-
timism is the apparently irresisti-
ble upward trend for canned foods
revealed n a long range study
of packing statistics. Commercial
canning of fruits and vegetables,
they pointed out, has expanded
since 1909 at a rate 19 times
faster than the country's growth
in population. The 1909 pack was
40,000,000 cases, compared with
508,000,000 in 1940. Meanwhile,
population has grown from about
89,000,000 persons to approximate-
ly 142,000,000. In this 37-year per-
iod, there have been five major
setbacks to the canning industry,
but none has lasted more than a
year or two, and in every case
the industry went on to new peaks
within five years.
The analysts are also encour-
aged to look for still greater packs
in the near future by their inside
knowledge of what is taking place
in research laboratories devote«.
to expanding agricultural market?
via the tin can. It is pointed nut
that there are numerous products
packed in cans today which are
so commonly accepted and used
that they seem always to have
existed, but which only a few
years ago were new packaging o.
canning problems of the labora-
tory. There is good reason, they
feel, to expect similar develop-
ment in the future through rier-
sistent effort.

Bonus* Built - the amazing
result of an engineering prin-
ciple that assures wider use,
longer life . . . and ONLY fwd
Truths Have It I
Every single one of the great new
Ford Trucks for '48 is Bonus Built
. . . designed and built with extra
strength in every vital part! But that's
only part of this vital truck engineer-
ing principle . . .
This extra strength provides WORK
RESERVES that pay off for truck
operators in two important ways:
• FIRST, these WORK RESERVKS give
Ford Trucks a greater range ot vm
by permitting them to handle loads
boyond tho normal call of duty.
Ford Trucks aro not limited to doing
one single, specific |obl
• SECOND, those same WORK RE-
SERVES permit Ford Trucks to relax
on the |ob ... to do their |obs
easier, with less strain and less
wear. Thus, Ford Trucks fast longer
because they work matlmrl
Yes, Ford Trucks for '48 are Bonus Buiic . . .
built stronger to last longer! That's why they
give their owners wider use and longer life!
That's why life insurance experts can certify
proof that Ford Trucks last up to 19.6%
